So you want to know more about me?  Where should I start?

<p> I was born in Seattle in 1970, grew up in Olympia, and lived a
couple other places before finally moving back to Seattle for graduate
school at the University of Washington.  I have lived in Washington my
whole life, and I love it here.  The wealth of natural beauty more
than makes up for the gray and rainy days.
